Perhaps it didn't notice that changing to RTF unsigned the document. Probably should report it to the OO team. >When I open the .rtf file in kwrite (you said rtf is simply a text file >format), I get a lot of codes with lots of '\'s, some of my text, more >code, some more text, more code, etc. That's what RTF looks like. It has to represent all the formatting information as text, which it does with lots of \command stuff. >However, there doesn't appear to be >any indication that some of that code is my digital signature. Not finding the signature isn't quite certain, as we don't quite know what you're looking for and much of the document is hard to read. Though, from what happens with re-opening the document, I expect that it isn't there. ____________________________________________________________________ TonyN.:' <mailto:tonynelson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> ' <http://www.georgeanelson.com/>
